More Information

Overview Manuals Simulation Scope Ethernet Integration Installation Fit Product Applications

Features:

  • Supports non-intrusive DeltaV I/O simulation and Ethernet I/O device integration.
  • Presents virtual I/O capacity to the controller and connects many Ethernet devices through protocol drivers.
  • Supports simplex, dual-simplex, and protocol-dependent redundant arrangements.
VE4026 is the M-series Virtual I/O Module 2 used between a DeltaV controller and either a simulation environment or an Ethernet I/O device network.

With DeltaV Mimic, the module simulates M-series I/O and digital-bus field devices without requiring control-strategy changes, supporting realistic acceptance testing and operator training.

For live integration, protocol drivers let the module exchange data with Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP devices while DeltaV Explorer retains the familiar card-and-channel engineering workflow.

For VE4026 DeltaV M-series Virtual I/O Module 2 sourcing, Apter Power can help confirm the Emerson driver, carrier and software requirements before quotation.

  • Evaluates DeltaV control strategies without changing their configured I/O structure.
  • Simulates M-series I/O and supported digital-bus interfaces through DeltaV Mimic.
  • Supports up to 64 simulated DeltaV I/O modules per controller for testing and operator training.
  • IOD-4111 provides Modbus TCP/IP Master communication for supported Ethernet device integration.
  • IOD-4112 and IOD-4116 provide the documented EtherNet/IP scanner and ODVA protocol options.
  • User-configurable addressing and virtual-card mapping adapt the module to simplex, dual-simplex, or supported redundant layouts.
  • Mounts beside the DeltaV controller on a supported two-wide horizontal or four-wide vertical carrier.
  • Requires a dedicated DeltaV system power supply and uses two 100BaseTX RJ45 Ethernet ports.
  • VIMNet Explorer supports module setup, addressing, diagnostics, and firmware maintenance.
  • Supports software acceptance testing by simulating DeltaV I/O and digital-bus behavior before field commissioning.
  • Connects DeltaV controllers to dynamic Mimic process models for operator training.
  • Integrates Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP equipment and supports redundant VIM2 pairs where the selected protocol permits.
Description
VE4026 gives DeltaV M-series controllers a dedicated path for two different engineering tasks: non-intrusive I/O simulation with DeltaV Mimic and high-speed integration of Ethernet I/O devices. One module can represent multiple virtual DeltaV I/O cards, allowing control strategies to be tested or plant-floor data to be exchanged without redesigning the controller application around a separate gateway.

VE4026 combines user-configurable Ethernet addressing, VIMNet Explorer setup and protocol-specific drivers in a carrier-mounted module beside the DeltaV controller. This modular arrangement supports straightforward staging for software acceptance testing, operator training and industrial Ethernet projects while keeping configuration inside familiar DeltaV engineering tools.

VE4026 can be deployed in simplex, dual-simplex or redundant arrangements when the selected protocol supports redundancy. That flexibility lets a project match communications resilience and device capacity to the application instead of changing the overall DeltaV control architecture.

Technical notes
VE4026 can physically replace the earlier M-series VIM, but it is not a functional drop-in replacement. Existing drivers must be converted for the VIM2 environment before commissioning. Mount the module on a supported two-wide or four-wide carrier beside the controller and provide a dedicated DeltaV system power supply.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
Should an engineer choose VE4026 for simulation or for live Ethernet I/O integration?
It supports either role. Use the Mimic simulation driver for non-intrusive I/O simulation, or install the appropriate Modbus TCP or EtherNet/IP driver for live device integration.
How does VE4026 appear to a DeltaV controller after commissioning?
The controller recognizes one simplex module as four virtual DeltaV I/O cards. Slot assignment depends on whether the installation is simplex, dual-simplex or redundant.
Where should VE4026 be mounted in an M-series cabinet?
Install it on a supported two-wide horizontal or four-wide vertical carrier immediately beside the controller carrier, and provide a dedicated DeltaV system power supply.
Which engineering tool is used to configure VE4026?
Use VIMNet Explorer to commission the module, set primary and secondary network parameters, assign device addresses, view diagnostics and manage firmware.
Can VE4026 redundancy be assumed for every Ethernet protocol?
No. Redundant operation depends on the selected protocol and driver. Confirm protocol support and license requirements before specifying a redundant pair.
What project value does VE4026 provide during factory acceptance testing?
It lets the DeltaV controller run against simulated I/O and field-device behavior while the control strategy remains unchanged, giving the project team a realistic test environment before physical I/O is available.
